TRANSLATION: Thank you and good morning. The government has promised more than £46m to 70 schemes in the South West to reduce the risk of flooding and coastal erosion. The Environment Agency said 21 flood defence facilities in Cornwall were set to share about £11m.

The new flood funding policy, is set to be implemented from 1 April and end in March 2029, and will support flood defences in Cornwall, including: Bude, St Ives, Portreath and Helston.

Talan Annear, 27, from St Dennis, will play for the England men's side at the FootGolf World Cup in Acapulco, Mexico, between 27 May and 7 June. The game is A hybrid of football and golf, players kick a ball from a tee with each player aiming for a hole in the fewest number of kicks. Annear, who works as a delivery driver for a supermarket, said he was going to South America looking to win. He said he got his place in the world cup based on the results from the previous year throughout the national tour. He said he had played football and golf separately but enjoyed the combination because it was "different". "You think you are good at football, that doesn't mean you are suddenly good at footgolf," he said.

Director Katy South said Prickles & Paws Hedgehog Rescue in Newquay, Cornwall, was originally running from her mum's back garden. She said the new £300,000 centre at Carnanton would be able to care for more hedgehogs, with up to 1,400 passing through each year. "The need seems to be continually growing," she said. "We admit from the entirety of Cornwall and across the border into Devon as well. Co-founder Diane South said the charity saw a lot of garden-related injuries at this time of year. The charity said a hedgehog's natural defence was to curl up into a ball, not to run away, which leaves them vulnerable to garden tools. It urged people to check long grass and move piles of leaves before strimming. That’s all from me, have a good week. Pic: Gunwalloe Church Cove Beach by Gilly Gabben.
